Build Portable Authority
before the window closes.
Helping elite sport and performance practitioners turn hard-won expertise into something they own.
Not personal branding.
Not content for content's sake.
Commercial architecture for practitioners with real expertise and a serious next chapter to build.
Most elite practitioners don't have a capability problem.
They have a portability problem.
Their expertise is real. Their reputation is earned. But too often, their authority is tied to a role, a team, a federation, a contract, or an institution.
When that environment changes, they discover how little has been built that can travel independently.
The Authority Trap
Credibility earned inside an institution rarely travels outside it.
I work with senior practitioners to turn expertise into commercial assets.
Turn what you know into something you own.
- 01Defining the territory they should own
- 02Extracting and structuring tacit expertise
- 03Developing methodology and IP
- 04Shaping commercial offers
- 05Designing buyer routes
- 06Building authority that travels beyond the badge
For elite sport and performance practitioners who are:
Respected in their field
Sitting on valuable expertise
Receiving inbound interest
Approaching a transition point
Thinking seriously about building something beyond their current role
Unwilling to cheapen their credibility with generic personal-brand advice
This is not for people looking for shortcuts, content hacks, or a side hustle.
Three ways to engage.
Portable Authority Review
A paid strategic review to understand where your authority currently lives, what is portable, what is not, and what commercial opportunities may be sitting inside your expertise.
Portable Authority Build
A deeper engagement to build the commercial architecture around your expertise — methodology, positioning, offers, buyer route, and assets.
Strategic Advisory
Selective ongoing advisory for practitioners, athletes and founders building in sport and performance.

17 years of global strategy. One recurring pattern.
I spent 17 years working with leading sport brands, elite athletes and talent inside WPP and Brandtech.
The pattern I keep seeing is simple:
Elite practitioners spend years building expertise, credibility and reputation.
Very few spend the same time building ownership.
Today, I help senior practitioners turn what they know into something they own — building authority, assets and commercial structures that travel beyond the institution where they were earned.
Current Advisory
Hytro, Phaze and a small number of elite practitioners, athletes and founders across sport and performance.
If there is more value in your expertise than you have currently built around it, let's talk.
For senior practitioners thinking seriously about what comes next.
